Listen "Stone, Story, and Struggle: The National Parks of the Northeast"
Episode Synopsis
Join Renee and Dan on a brisk, intimate tour through the Northeast’s packed pockets of history and wildness: Acadia’s granite coasts and carriage roads, Saratoga’s decisive fields where a young nation proved itself, and Gettysburg’s haunted ridges where Lincoln reshaped a country in two minutes. The episode moves like a walk through layered time, from Wabanaki canoes to Gilded Age benefactors, battlefield drama, and the quiet power of memory.
With sharp storytelling and lived-in voices, the hosts reveal surprising twists — wealthy conservationists who saved the land, a hero who later became a traitor, and native stories finally being reclaimed — and ask what we choose to remember when we protect a place. Listen for sunrise on Cadillac Mountain, the creak of carriage roads, and the whispers that linger in fields where history was forged.
